I stayed here at Egidio's for almost a month and I had a really pleasant stay at his place! It was like a home away from home. It is cosy as it looks on the photos shown. Egidio has been responsive and helpful throughout, it was a shame that we did not get to meet since he does not live in Thailand. Anyway, I highly recommend his place for travellers who want to stay in the Sathorn area of Bangkok.
Even though Suanplu is a residential /local area of Sathorn, there are a lot of food stalls, restaurants and 24hrs operating mini-marts around.
